He’s a mogwai, you realize, not a gremlin. I used to be misinformed!

Gizmo was revealed as MultiVersus’ subsequent fighter at the beginning of this month by devs Participant First Video games. Other than the apparent cuteness issue, the little feller’s voice-over is fairly humorous. I significantly get pleasure from it when he shouts “NO PRISONERS!” at different combatants.
